Chance to cure it at Old Curate’s House, Ladysbridge do-er upper Cork

Immediate interest has swung in behind the former Curate’s House, or Parochial House, in East Cork’s pretty Ladysbridge.

In fact, it has already stepped nicely over its initial €145,000 asking price via agent Adrianna Hegarty in Midleton: by mid-week, she had offers up to €170,000, and lots of viewings still booking in.

Unlived in for the past several years, it needs a fairly full overhaul, in terms of wiring, electrics, insulating, decorating and more, but the upsides are location, space and a great deal of character.
